Android //从对话框刷新ListFragment中的自定义Arrayadapter

Question

OK, the relevant things:

I have a FragmentActivity (MainActivity.java) which holds the references to a one Fragment (Tab1Fagment.java) , and two ListFragments (Tab2- & Tab3Fragment.java) . The Tab3Activity is a ListFragment which is created dynamically upon some dates which are read from the SharedSettings . Now, the dates are being set in a Dialog which is being launched from the Tab3Fragment .

Well, my question is - how do I refresh the list in the Tab3Fragment when the dialog is dismissed? - the onCreateView method doesn't capture that event. The list is being refreshed if I switch to Tab1 and come back to Tab3 - but that's just a bad workaround.

The relevant codes:

public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity implements ActionBar.TabListener {

SectionsPagerAdapter mSectionsPagerAdapter;
ViewPager mViewPager;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main_activity);

    final ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
    actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);

    mSectionsPagerAdapter = new SectionsPagerAdapter(
            getSupportFragmentManager());

    mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
    mViewPager.setAdapter(mSectionsPagerAdapter);

    mViewPager.setOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.SimpleOnPageChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onPageSelected(int position) {
        actionBar.setSelectedNavigationItem(position);
        }
    });

    // For each of the sections in the app, add a tab to the action bar.
    for (int i = 0; i < mSectionsPagerAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
        actionBar.addTab(actionBar.newTab()
                //.setText(mSectionsPagerAdapter.getPageTitle(i))
                .setTabListener(this));
        }
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main_activity_menu, menu);
    menu.getItem(0).setVisible(menuShow);
    return true;
}

@Override
public void onTabSelected(ActionBar.Tab tab,
        FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
    // When the given tab is selected, switch to the corresponding page in
    // the ViewPager.
    mViewPager.setCurrentItem(tab.getPosition());
}

@Override
public void onTabUnselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
}

@Override
public void onTabReselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // Handle presses on the action bar items
    switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.action_settings:
            DatePickerDialog datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(this);
            datePickerDialog.show(); //moram ici ovako jer mi trebaju listeneri za share dugme
            getActionBar().selectTab(getActionBar().getTabAt(0));
            return true;
        default:
            return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }
}

/**
 * A {@link FragmentPagerAdapter} that returns a fragment corresponding to
 * one of the sections/tabs/pages.
 */
public class SectionsPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {

    public SectionsPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
        super(fm);
    }

    public Fragment getItem(int position) {
        // getItem is called to instantiate the fragment for the given page.
        // Return a DummySectionFragment (defined as a static inner class
        // below) with the page number as its lone argument.

        switch (position) {
        case 0:
            // Tab1 fragment activity
            return new Tab1Fragment();
        case 1:
            // Tab2 fragment activity
            return new Tab2Fragment();
        case 2:

            return new Tab3Fragment();
        }    
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        // Show 3 total pages.
        return 3;
    }

    //tab titles - not being used
    @Override
    public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
        Locale l = Locale.getDefault();
        switch (position) {
        case 0:
            return getString(R.string.title_section1).toUpperCase(l);
        case 1:
            return getString(R.string.title_section2).toUpperCase(l);
        case 2:
            return getString(R.string.title_section3).toUpperCase(l);
        }
        return null;
    }
}}

DatePickerDialog.java

this class basically just saves the dates to sharedpreferences and dismisses the dialog

            saveData();
        dismiss();

Answer 1

You can repopulate the ListView on exiting the DatePickerDialog by calling adapter.clear() and adapter.addAll() . Alternatively, you could delete/add specific elements, however if the number of elements is low just repopulate as it will produce less bugs and you won't notice any difference.

To create a Dialog you can use this code inside the onCreate() of Tab3Fragment :

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
    builder.setMessage("Message")
           .setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
               public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                   // take any needed action
                   Tab3Fragment.this.updateData();
               }
           })
           .setNegativeButton(R.string.cancel, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
               public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                   // take any needed action
                   Tab3Fragment.this.updateData();
               }
           });
    Dialog dialog = builder.create();

You might want to add similar listener with setOnDismissListener which is called if user presses 'back'.

And in your Tab3Fragment define method that will be called from the Dialog :

private void updateData(){
    initialize();
    rearrange();
}

Now when you want to show the dialog just call dialog.show() .
